#

or could someone help me clear out all my shit ammo and mags

median spire
#

i can what ammo do you have?

frozen sundial
median spire
#

i did

unreal imp
#

7.62 BP is the only ones you should use, 5.45 BS and Igolnik are the ammo you should use, but BT is okayish for budget

bold kernel
#

5.45 bs?

median spire
#

sauce

#

i sended chart

bold kernel
#

there are no exceptino for that caliber besides bt right

unreal imp
#

Well bt is already much worse than Igolnik and bs, but it is one of the most cost effective ammos

median spire
#

i normally get 1 or 2 kill mags with bs loaded and rest with bt

unreal imp
#

I tend to hunt players so i have at least 300 rounds of good ammo with me

#

2-3 stacks in pouch

bold kernel
#

5.45 prs is garbarage right

unreal imp
#

yes

#

I know players that say all of 5.45 is garbage and they are right tbh

#

3 hits to kill at 650rpm at most is weak compared to other weapons

sharp terrace
#

is the p226 good?

bold kernel
#

depends how you use it. It can be useful so long as you have the ammo for it like AP 6.3 or 7n31. Although, your chances of getting into close range fights is pretty small unless you're hiding somewhere and waiting for a chance to strike. For instance I took a guy down with a 1911 trying to look for marked room. He could've shut me down with a grenade but instead for some reason he decided to push me with a full auto m4. It didn't end well for him.

wise furnace
#

what am i even suppposed to do when i know someone has star rounds? how do i avoid that shit

bold kernel
#

Usually you're screwed. That thing lasts for 20 seconds. Nothing you can do about it except shoot randomly or maintain distance.

wise furnace
#

fuck me man those feel so bad to fight. lost labs run to peakers advantage with that stuff. 1 person basically starred a 4 man and had no trouble at all

#

probably just should have kept spraying even with a decent way out. oh well feels bad man.

valid widget
#

when is wipe??

wise furnace
#

to my knowledege weve been given no indication of a wipe

upper iron
#

Shotguns seem way more op this wipe than last wipe lol

sharp terrace
#

Any tips for Interchange?

delicate wren
#

Depends on what you’re trying to do

#

Middle of the mall is where the action is at, and the decent loot. But there are plenty of other places around them map with good loot

sharp terrace
#

Idea?

#

(the fake ikea)

#

I want quick, good loot with a good escape point

upper iron
#

There isn't really "quick good loot with a good escape point" otherwise tarkov would be pointless to play :p

delicate wren
#

@sharp terrace do you have flea?

sharp terrace
#

uhm

#

whats "flea"?

#

ooh

#

flea market

#

no im level 2

#

I literally just got the game I have no idea how to play :)

delicate wren
#

There’s a pretty good keycard for a container outside the mall to buy once you get flea. Really good card for the price

upper iron
#

:( Walk into interchange and 3 chads are sitting at killa and sp-5 scav OP you feel me, 940 damage to armor 140 to body =DDDDDDDD

sharp terrace
#

so the best place to go for a beginner like me is...

#

?

#

prolly not interchange

#

but factory there's too much PVP

upper iron
#

To be honest, interchange is, imo a harder map to play, it's dark, has a lot of stores, lots of dark corners and so on. It isn't a map for beginners if I am honest. It's good to scav on as a beginner though. I'd say customs, it's all pretty much open, there are a few houses and stuff. Or Reserve, but you can only escape 1 way as PMC on Reserve :/

#

Factory is like ape gaming tbh. Good to kill a few scavs and get out

sharp terrace
#

thanks for the tip. I really like customs, but every time I go there it's night, so I can't really see what's going on

upper iron
#

I mean, if you go, don't pick times after 18:30 and before 05:30

sharp terrace
#

Okay

#

Also

#

Should I use weapons from stash when scav is not available?

#

I really have nothing and I could lose it all

#

I have 4 pistols, 1 AKM with 18 bullets and some pistol mags

#

I still have all meds and water supplies but guns? heck no

#

I always go out with a bayonet but It's hard killing with that

upper iron
#

To be honest, play scav right, kill one or two scavs (if you know extracts) and then just leave

sharp terrace
#

I don't know extracts

#

I only escaped ONCE in my entire life from tarkov

#

it was factory

#

and it was my 2nd run

upper iron
#

Have a map open on your phone or something so you can extract easier then

sharp terrace
#

I put the AKM in the stash and didnt mind taking off the body armor and helmet from the scav so I lost it

upper iron
#

This game doesn't really forgive just running around and trying to find things, since most players know where to go by now

sharp terrace
#

Yes that's true

#

Scav is ready now

#

I'm going to try customs

upper iron
#

When I first played, I had a map open on my phone the entire time so I could extract

#

You can try it on Factory too, just dome a few scavs, take all their gear and then you have a half shitty loadout to go on PMC with =D

#

The game is a bit of a challenge Pre lvl 10 anyway I think thonk

sharp terrace
#

Okay

#

Let's try factory

#

Actually I'm going to stream it to anyone who wants to see how shit I am

#

Beginners assistance #1

manic tangle
#

could i get another beginner (aus πŸ‡¦πŸ‡Ί ) To squad up with ?

sharp terrace
#

I'm quiet and muted, won't talk but feel free to come check how shite I am

upper iron
#

I can watch haha

#

Yuck you have music on so high

sharp terrace
#

sorry

#

I will toggle it

#

oh waht

#

this game really wants to show me how my awareness needs to improve

upper iron
#

You don't need to walk around and check every angle, you'll generally hear if someone is near you

sharp terrace
#

okay

upper iron
#

It makes you slow and easy to shoot, that was a player scav waiting for you and you went back to the same spot you got shot in lol

sharp terrace
#

I'm a r6 player ahah

upper iron
#

Same :)

drifting jolt
#

welp, youre going to have an interesting time with this, to say the least

sharp terrace
#

mhm

upper iron
#

This game is nothing like any other shooter

sharp terrace
#

I also play cod which is bad cause no other game is like cod

faint lantern
#

is there a way to see what type of ammo u died to

sharp terrace
#

cod has the worst weapon recoils

upper iron
#

It pays to not be so cautious and slow though

sharp terrace
#

too easy to handle

faint lantern
#

or atleast a combat log of sort like in rust

upper iron
#

No, normally it'll just tell you that you got clapped

sharp terrace
#

yes adro1t

#

I think

#

you can

#

like

#

when I die there are untreated wounds

#

you can see the type of shot that has been left in your body

#

I think

faint lantern
#

ahh ok

upper iron
#

Really

#

Come, we can do a factory run

#

I hate that map

sharp terrace
#

Wait me and you?

upper iron
#

Yeah

faint lantern
#

bc this guy shot me with a slug and i ate it thhen the next one goes straight through my armor haha

sharp terrace
#

you sure?

upper iron
#

Probably ap-20

sharp terrace
#

I hope you can carry me bro :)

faint lantern
#

yh may have chambered a diff one at first

#

then switched it

sharp terrace
#

I'm bringing the best loot I have cause I trust ya

upper iron
#

I am level 7 this wipe, so I am not much more geared than you =D

sharp terrace
#

lol

upper iron
#

Just take a PM

sharp terrace
#

#

I wanted to take ak lol

#

I'll take PM

upper iron

It's Greg55 :))

#

let me disable music

#

My ears are suffering

#

finally removed music

#

done

tired crane
#

Might be a bit hard to play. Being a team in tarkov requires voice communication

sharp terrace
#

Ahah It is infact somewhat hard but we escaped once lol

tired crane
#

Nice!

sharp terrace
#

And we died plenty

#

but it was fun

#

I'm a noob he's a very fair and good player

#

Despite him being lvl 7 this wipe and probably not having the gear that he had before he let me take some good stuff

#

And we went Factory

#

And Factory's a strange place

#

You either get players with no loot and armor or players that try to do quests and have class 6 stuff

#

Well now I'm back to streaming

#

how bad I am

#

In factory #1

Anyone in here thats higherlevel and has Mech lvl 3?

uneven sundial
#

help

#

i entered a scav raid in customs

#

and my exits are old road gate and old gas station

#

but none of them work

wanton cedar
#

There should be more extracts listed

uneven sundial
#

only these 2

heavy rivet
#

for old gas where did you try extract

#

in the building?

uneven sundial
#

that bunker door down there

heavy rivet
#

for old gas on a scav you go behind the blue fence to the left

uneven sundial
#

ohh

heavy rivet
#

its a massive looking factory gate

drifting jolt
#

^

uneven sundial
#

i see

#

thank you very much

heavy rivet
#

no problem

hallow arrow
#

If you're a Scav and you kill a Boss and his raider boys, will regular scavs be aggro to you?

timid pewter
#

yo i have a ledx but its not found in raid

#

do i just sell it to the traders ?

drifting jolt
#

@hallow arrow i believe so

#

@timid pewter you can save it for barters

fathom elk
#

how do you know which extract you have to use?

silver hornet
#

double-tap O to see your extracts

drifting jolt
#

@fathom elk were you the one thinking of buying the game the other day? im assuming you got it lol

fathom elk
#

@drifting jolt yep, got it

drifting jolt
#

nice! good luck...

fathom elk
#

i've not managed to play pvp yet

drifting jolt
#

prepare to hate life for a while.. lol

fathom elk
#

yeah, it took a while to figure out some of the in game commands so i played pve for a bit

#

looking down the iron sights and i wasnt hitting anything

#

do the bullet's drop over distance?

drifting jolt
#

yeah, but you should hold your breath too if you're shooting at range

#

Also, you could have been hitting armor... or just missing

fathom elk
#

hold my breath! i wondered what that was for

#

i should have known

drifting jolt
#

πŸ™‚

fathom elk
#

last game i was holding my breath in was Death Stranding

drifting jolt
#

also, learn to hip fire up close.. it's very effective

fathom elk
#

so that confused the hell out of me

uneven sundial
#

how do i escape old gas station as a pmc?

tender tiger
#

go inside the gas station and go down into the bunker

#

but it only works if the green flares outside are on

uneven sundial
#

aw ok

spice pecan
#

They will sometimes show as Gray/black flairs, but should work all the same πŸ™‚

Is emeiya decent?

spice pecan
drifting jolt
#

not you, but the other guy lol

spice pecan
#

If your sqaud starts across the river and you spawn late after they have already crossed, you will have different extracts. About the only time I have ever seen issues with it

upper iron
#

Any new people? I am lvl 7 EU. Gonna do some interchange soon, I can help teach a little bit :) played last wipe

timber furnace
#

i just got the game yesterday what map should i start playing

drifting jolt
timber furnace
#

ok lol thats what i was doing just wanted to make sure

drifting jolt
#

yup

my first map was shoreline 10/10 map to start kappa

sullen lotus
drifting jolt
#

put a 'vudu' scope on it though

sharp terrace
#

Is this a good stash? (I started today)

#

there's day backpacks inside of scav backpacks

drifting jolt
#

if that's starting today, then you're doing fine @sharp terrace

lethal jackal
#

what is the difference between the factions?

drifting jolt
#

english vs russian voicelines

lethal jackal
#

ah

drifting jolt
#

available clothing is slightly different, but nothing gameplay wise

lethal jackal
#

good to know i thought it would give you different loot pools or something

drifting jolt
#

@lethal jackal just got the game i assume?

lethal jackal
#

eh no planning on getting the game

drifting jolt
#

gotcha

barren berry
#

^new players when visiting IC

drifting jolt
#

arent those images backwards? lol

#

killa, nade, then sad kitty

barren berry
#

yep

#

kitty < nade < killa

#

they just dont have opposite sided killa image

#

so thats why it is looking like this

drifting jolt
#

ahh i see what you mean :p

lethal jackal
#

i have another question

#

is sniping fun in Tarkov?

sharp terrace
#

Sniping is uh

#

something that ruins other player's hard labour

#

lol

#

But sniping medium range can be interesting

drifting jolt
lethal jackal
#

ok XD good to knnw

drifting jolt
#

very satisfying use of weapons, and MANY weapons and MANY scope options

lethal jackal
#

got it

#

ive always been good in CoD not sure its gonna translate though

sharp terrace
#

Cod is nothing like this game my brother

lethal jackal
#

i knoe

sharp terrace
#

That's what they tell me everytime

drifting jolt
#

@lethal jackal dont worry... it doesnt

sharp terrace
#

I get in a game

lethal jackal
#

soo more like R6 than CoD?

sharp terrace
#

Not even like r6

#

I'm a very good player of both games

lethal jackal
#

i mean gunplay

drifting jolt
#

@lethal jackal Not at all

sharp terrace
#

And still die alot

#

Tony this is hyper realism

#

this game

drifting jolt
#

^

sharp terrace
#

you need to get used to mechanics you never tried before

barren berry
#

@lethal jackal this game is more like arma

drifting jolt
#

^ that's a good analogy

barren berry
#

but with shitty registration EB_KEKW

lethal jackal
#

XD

sharp terrace
#

Kinda, arma + squad but incredibly realistic weapon handling

lethal jackal
#

hmm ok

sharp terrace
#

Just a tip for making you like the game more: never go factory until you get scav

drifting jolt
#

It's like if you mixed pubg and arma, but with wayyy better aspects to the gunplay

sharp terrace
#

cause factory ruins your life

#

lol

#

I went there with PMC second run

#

and you all know what happened

lethal jackal
#

you died pretty fast im guessing?

drifting jolt
#

Factory has a few spawns right near each other.. you can die in the first 5 seconds

sharp terrace
#

Yes

lethal jackal
#

oh...

#

ouch

sharp terrace
#

You get out and hear some russian screams

#

then the only thing you see is a bullet in your throax

#

thorax

#

and the medical bills to pay

drifting jolt
#

If you know those spawns though, it's fucking awesome cause you get into PvP right away lol

sharp terrace
#

Yes

#

I go there with scav

drifting jolt
sharp terrace
#

lol

#

btw scav is a good match with factory

lethal jackal
#

how do you do that?

sharp terrace
#

Tony know how scavs work?

lethal jackal
#

the message above thingy and i think so

sharp terrace
#

You basically get random loot, not from your stash and you spawn randomly

drifting jolt
#

@lethal jackal You have 2 options... PMC is your player where you take in all your own shit

lethal jackal
#

you get two scav spawns

drifting jolt
#

Scavs are the AI, but you can play as one essentially.. you get a random kit and it's strictly for making $

sharp terrace
#

Yes

#

If you escape with a scav you are going to get fine loot

#

they always spawn with guns

#

and boy is it profitable

#

I just finished a factory run with scav

#

Got an MP-153 (I think that is one of the most broken shotguns in the game, 1 shots)

drifting jolt
#

@sharp terrace for you it seems that factory scav is good $... but it's the least amount you can make on any map, just fyi

sharp terrace
#
  • ak and pp gun
lethal jackal
#

how is the pmm?

sharp terrace
#

PM or PMM?

lethal jackal
#

tiny russian pistol

drifting jolt
#

@sharp terrace Bc any dead PMC will definitely have been looted, cause there's only 5 max... and there's almost no loose loot... it's good as a noob, cause you have more scavs close to you... so you can kill them and take out kits for your next PMC raids

#

but overall it is not a $ making map at all

static harness
#

does scav runs count to pmc xp?

drifting jolt
#

nope

#

scav = money only

static harness
#

bruh

drifting jolt
#

bruh

lethal jackal
#

you dont get the gear either?

drifting jolt
#

the gear is $

#

loot and gear = $

#

He's talking about PMC skills and level exp

lethal jackal
#

well yes but can you use the gear you bring back instead of selling it

drifting jolt
#

which you CANNOT level up as a scav

#

@lethal jackal fuck yeah... that's how you save $

#

If you kill a geared up player their shit is worth $... but it also costs a lot to mod out a weapon...

#

So you can take in higher tier shit if you collect... or you can just sell it.. .that's up to you

lethal jackal
#

cool

drifting jolt
#

You play this game however you want... You want PvP, it's there.. You want to be stealthy, you can.. You want to have a lot of $, you can... You want to have a lot of shit in your stash, you can...

lethal jackal
#

who can? kapkan

drifting jolt
#

Raids are 40+ minutes long... so you can be in and out in 10 minutes... or play for 35 minutes taking it slow

#

the world is your oyster lol

lethal jackal
#

cool

drifting jolt
#

But to reiterate... Youre going to get your dick kicked iin the dirt over and over again, and then someone else while come by and kick it in some more dirt...

#

But eventually things start to click and you start making some progress

lethal jackal
#

ok im not gonna lie

#

people tell me that all the time

drifting jolt
#

No amount of Call of Duty experience* is going to carry over...

lethal jackal
#

and most of the time they're wrong

drifting jolt
#

Ive played shooters for about 25 years now

#

So, I think I can say that with certainty

lethal jackal
#

i shall surprise you

heyo, pretty new to the game my self. A friend got me into the game for a bit, but I was hoping to find some folks to do a few raids with and to learn more of the nuances of the game

fathom elk
#

hi

#

me too, but cant play right now

#

however

#

what ive been taught so far by some very experienced players is to start on offline mode and get to know the maps

#

spawns and extraction points

#

work out the squeeze points and where most of the players go i.e. places you're likely to die easily

#

after that you go in with pve on and learn to shoot

real scaffold
#

gotcha. ive gotten to know a few of the maps so far, but I can tell there is alot more to be learned about even the ones I have explored

carmine gust
#

This is all good advice. Frustin comin up nice! I would add watching a guide vid can be helpful. If you can watch one on a side monitor and run through off line that helps a lot at least for me. If you are NA HMU and maybe we can run a couple.
